"It's entirely within the realm of possibility that we see refinery outages, oil production losses and gasoline supply issues - essentially all the things you don't want to happen," DeHaan said in a statement. "While this storm doesn't currently appear as powerful as other storms that have caused similar concern, we're continuing to watch the situation develop."
The price per gallon last averaged $4 in Connecticut back in April.
